Enter into the legend of design with the “Lampe de Bureau'' designed by Jean Prouvé in 1930. A self-taught architect with a passion for industrialising buildings, Jean Prouvé (1901 - 1984) is now considered a leading architect and one of the greatest designers of the 20th century, on par with Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand. A pioneer, Prouvé played a major role in the development of mass production techniques in the European post-war modernist movement. Jean Prouvé developed a "constructive thought" based on a logic of manufacturing and functionality to create an aesthetic that is purified of all artifices. The designer has a wide portfolio of designs ranging from prefabricated homes to furniture for offices, classrooms and interiors. Jean Prouvé's creations have become icons of the post-war period and have spanned the whole century. The originals of the Compass desk or the Direction chair sell for tens of thousands of euros at auction. Their reproductions feature in the catalogue of the furniture manufacturer Vitra. In 1930, Jean Prouvé designed the "Lampe de Bureau", a small table lamp, as part of the functional furniture design for the Cité Universitaire in Nancy. Made of folded sheet steel, it reflects the light rays, pleasantly illuminating the surface of the desk. The epoxy finish is available in several colours derived from the original colours used by Prouvé and the power cable is wrapped in a high-quality textile cover.
